Jesus in my life after a bad thing happened to me since 2011.I was in the Marines for 14 years.It was after 5 guys in the unit I was in sexually assaulted and raped me.I was honorably discharged after being diagnosed with PTSD from it.Luckily a survivor of this talked me into going to the church she went to.It helped me recover from it and knew she was right.It made a huge difference in my life.The 5 guys in the unit I was in with whom did this to me are serving a 30 year prison sentence and got a dishonorable discharge.I credit him for everything including support from family and friends including my husband whom is a pastor.

Hi Shawna and welcome to the forums here. I am so sorry for what happened to you, sexual abuse is teaming, especially in the military, was like that back in the early 80's and has only gotten worse.
Thank God for your survivor friend! She brought you to our great healer, nothing get's past our God.
Enjoy your time here and God bless and keep you growing in Him.

What a terrible experience for you but with Jesus in your life you have that new start - he never lets us down. Such a powerful testimony. Hope to see you around.
